r/horror on Reddit: Top 5 horror films of 2025 so far
May 26, 2025 -

We are getting close to the halfway point of 2025 with about a little over month to it so what is everyone's top 5 so far for 2025. Think it is a pretty descent time as there is still not a enough really great movies to make for 1 or 2 interesting choices in it. Right now for me in no particular order it is:

Ash, Companion, Final Destination: Bloodlines, Locked, and The Ugly Stepsister

October 14, 2025 - Locke meets Blair Witch in a real-time car-based thriller that has two parents (Rosamund Pike, Matthew Rhys) speeding towards their 18-year-old daughter after a late-night car accident in the woods. The fast-cranking drama plays out at either end of a phone line as the pair desperately attempt to navigate a nightmarish scenario that’s about to get even more nightmarish.

And by good, I mean I should have a sense of satisfaction after the movie ends, that I’ve seen something worthwhile and haven’t wasted my time. I’ve been pissed off so much over the last few days watching crappy movies (which I thought would be good) and wasting my time.

The 10 Best Horror Movies of 2025
1 week ago - We have to admit that going into 2025, we did not have Warners dominating the field for the preceding 12 months on our bingo card. And yet… well, see below. But when we look back on the year on horror, the surprises and sideways entries that quickly established themselves as landmarks far outweighed the low points. A number of the films in our top 10 found extraordinary filmmakers using the form for both extremely personal and grand, sweeping statements — in the case of standouts like Sinners, Frankenstein, and The Shrouds, they deftly managed to balance both elements at once.

The Best Horror Movies of 2025
1 day ago - As flawed and infuriating as real-life couples, “Together” is a queasy, body-horror romance that takes the familiar pain points of a nagging girlfriend/slacker boyfriend dynamic and stretches them to their most disgusting ends. Michael Shanks’ feature debut understands that the scariest part of commitment isn’t merging lives, but realizing the mess you’ll have on your hands if you ever try to separate.

r/horror on Reddit: Most Terrifying Movies for 2025!!
January 3, 2025 -

Alright guys, I am a massive horror fanatic, and watch mostly horror every night. I am trying to watch one horror movie everyday for 2025 (I know I will be re-watching a lot of my favourites) but I am looking for your all time, number 1, most terrifying movies. Be it jump scares, surrealism, or just all out realistic horror, I want your all time number 1 scariest movie.

Please note, I am not looking for your "favourite" horror, as my favourites are not the scariest that I've seen. I am moreso just looking for the chills.
